“Went thru drive thru to get daughter a nacho bell grande combo meal. The line didn't take too long, the employee who took our order was quick and courteous, and the lady who was at the drive-thru window was polite, thorough, and friendly. My daughter's order was made perfect and nothing was missing. She said the food was delicious and the soda was perfect. We also were not asked to pull ahead. Instead, they were able to deliver the food and beverage at the window. We will be back.“
“It's taco bell, if u want taco bell tacos this is the place to go, ? But I will always love Taco Bell. I just wish they didn't get rid of some of the Staples like the cheesy potatoes or the mexi melts. Vegetarian options: Have all vegetable fillings no meat“
“Food was amazing! First time having birria tacos amazing experience I loved it! The chicken street tacos amazing! Everything was seasoned so good the Diablo sauce was very spicy and good. The corn was my daughter’s favorite! Definitely coming back again.“
“We recently got a big order for a little shindig we were having. The people were nice, the process was smooth, and the food was an absolute hit. We have been here a number of times and will continue to but this was such a positive experience I had to leave a review :)“
“Can be a little loud when they are busy. Food is good and you get lots, won't leave hungry.Parking: Depending on how busy they are, sometimes parking is not great. Restaurant shares parking with a convenience type store/sandwich shop, and I believe a laundromat around the corner.“
“Wow ! What a great place from the food to the decor as soon as you step just inside the door it screams Mexico. I used their event room all day for meetings. Liz and Dave took great care of me all day. Dave was my right hand man, I will be back.“
“Ordered a carne asada burrito, chicken burrito, chips and queso, and two margaritas (strawberry and regular). Everything was fantastic. Burritos are huge, queso and chips just how I like them and margaritas were very tasty. There tomatillo salsa had just the right balance of flavor and heat. The team was very friendly and efficient. I’m definitely going back . . . often!“
“One of the better Mexican restaurants I've been to in St. Louis. My daughter has this love for birria tacos so we stopped here for lunch after her volleyball tournament. We both got the Birria Tacos, along with a few a la cart Street Tacos and it was delicious. Though I don't remember the taco I had with pineapple it was one of my favorite street tacos. If you are looking for a solid place for Mexican food then make sure you stop here.“
“Went there last night for the first time. OMG. I am an avid lover of Mexican food and I have to say this was the best Mexican food I've had since I've been in Missouri. Melissa's green chili is fire?. The food was wonderful. Everything was so fresh. Her Guacamole is to die for. Jumbo Margaritas actually had alcohol in them. The sopapilla was top of the line. Everything was amazing. You gotta try this place. Prices, food, atmosphere and service was excellent. Way to go Melissa. We will definitely be back.“
“As good as ever. The new remodel is fantastic and makes the Atmosphere even better. The Tequila Fish was a wonderful surprise. The jalapeno bean dip is a must.Parking: You can no longer cut through the back to get to St Ferdinand Park. It's still a great place for Parking.Kid-friendliness: Yeah, they have Hi Chairs and plenty of napkins“
“Amazing service, even better food.I’ve been to countless taquerias in St Louis. The Al Pastor tacos are some the best, if not the best, tacos I’ve had in the St Louis area. Every time I could here I am blown away.A must stop for anyone who appreciates a good taco“
“I had a great time with my son at Chevy's ! Me and my son came for a dinner together and the service was lovely! The manager Curtis even said grace with us. Our server Luz was very sweet and and polite. Curtis kept checking on us to make sure our night was going well. Would come “
“If you’re looking for AUTHENTIC Mexican food, look no further! This place is AMAZING, I’m a Midwest transplant from California. No one does Tacos like Durangos in STL. Then go next door to the markéta, and its like being home! If you’re like me, when you miss home go here and order yourself 4 carne asada tacos (the right way) with a Corona and watch the homesickness float away..“
“Impressive! Wile many of the local Mexican restaurants are pretty much the same, this one really stands out. Great presentation, tasty salsa and I was delighted that they offer the spoon cornbread! That stuff is super hard to find. This is my new go-to. Thanks!“
“Must visit the place. 5 stars for food and 5 stars for a great service. I'm a out of towner and this was my 1st time here. My server treating me as if I was one of their veteran to this place. The asada tacos were so good, I asked 2 more to take it to go.Price is affordable and food is wonderful. Love my server, wish I remember her name, and place was clean. Clean place, greate food, kind server, it's rare to find a place that has all three. I travel a lot from states to states. This is a must visit place.“
“My husband has been eyeing this place for a bit and today we finally decided to give it a shot. The staff was very friendly and helpful! My husband ordered the steak torta and horchata. I ordered the chicken quesadilla with a tamarin drink. This was literally the best chicken quesadilla I've ever had, super filling. It was so good I forgot to take a picture. We grabbed an order of the churros after seeing a raving review about them. As well as four popsicles to go (Oreo, coffee tequila, strawberry cream, and watermelon). I highly recommend this place, we will definitely be back.“
“Not a bad little place. Food was delicious and quick, only reason I gave it 4 was the service and seating. Was asked to speak with someone, they passed me into a other and then we had three different servers between drinks, food order and water top offs. Friendly non the less, but not as simple as it could be.“
“Always good.. Nice servers.Update. They ave changed since the pandemic.The food doesn' taste the same and the prices, like everywhere else have escalated.Service is still good, except when I hand you my card, hand it back to me.When you put my card on the counter versus handing it back to me is disrespectful.“
“Visited twice, dishes we've had so far: The deep fried red snapper, burrito, chicken empanadas, mole (very good!), tacos, and guacamole. In general, the dishes are tasty. We really enjoyed the red snapper and mole, unique from the typical "mexican" fare in St. Louis (mushy stuff covered in slimy cheese). The mole sauce and tacos are flavorful, the rest of the dishes are well presented, generous portions, and fresh ingredients, maybe a bit on the bland side. The red and green salsas that come with the chips are fresh--the first time we had them, they had more spicy kick and stronger flavor, the second visit they were dialed down--each batch must come out a little different. They make their own margarita sour--it's delicious!! Has a hint of ginger, comes in 2 jar sizes, large and larger! The space is kinda like a diner/neighborhood bar & grille--it's spacious and clean. Highly recommended! I hope they expand their traditional dishes and offer more vegetarian options. Also, some extra hot choices for us spice addicts.“
“We was looking for a new ice cream place and stumbled upon this cute little place. Staff was friendly. We didn't end up getting ice cream ?. We got tacos and cheese fries and fruit dish covered in sweet cream bionco. We'll definitely be back. It was a tasty lil meal and treat.“
“BEST pupusas I’ve had in over a decade!! From the salsa to the curtido, this is our new go to restaurant!! Las mejor pupusas que he probado en mas de una decada!! Desde la salsa al curtido, todo estuvo delicioso!! Este es nuestro nuevo restaurante favorito!“
“Small hidden gem that serves amazing authentic Mexican food. We walked in before closing and still got seated with amazing service. The food was delicious and fresh. The menu is on the smaller side but the food is tasty. I highly recommend getting the horchata to drink since they do make it fresh from scratch. The ambiance of the restaurant made you feel right at home with traditional Mexican decor. The staff was quick and attentive and made sure we had everything we needed.“
“The service is excellent, friendly, and fast. Even for a party of 6, we got our food in 20 min. Flavors are good. I enjoyed mine, but have had better. Would rate food an A-. Salsa a little too spicy for my wife. Would've liked a milder option.Dietary restrictions: A great keto (low-carb) or diabetic option is the molcajete (stew of several meats). Eat without tortillas, and you'll still have enough to take home.“
“Great place! Our server, Mario, was awesome. Came and took our drink order immediately and paid close attention to our drinks. Food came out, and it was smaller than expected, I got the Carretta wrap with steak. It was $11 and really good if you aren't too hungry. Mario definitely ate the star because he was SUPER Mario. (The toothpick machine is really cool, too)“
“I have had almost everything on the menu so far I have not found anything that has not been prepared cooked taste great meets my expectations for a restaurant and one day I will eat everything on the menu at least once highly recommend anybody that likes Mexican food to try this place highly “
“This is a great spot for a relaxing, dinner, date, or to take the family. The food is delicious. The portion size generous. And the service is efficient, fast and friendly.I highly recommend.Parking: New parking lot.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.“
“Mission Taco Joint did not disappoint! My son and I were in from Chicago for a soccer tournament and decided to try it out. We started with the Carne Asada Steak Fries and OMG! The meat was cooked to perfection. We then picked out some tacos to share. I have to say these are some of the best tacos I have ever eaten. My absolute favorites were the Chicken BBQ and the BLT. These 2 are a must try. The sides We ordered were street corn and the cilantro lime rice and they were right up there with everything. The service was great too! Sangria...YUM. Check this place out if you're ever in MO. You'll be glad you did.“
“*** Foodies take note ***** El Mexiquense has a very broad range of menu offerings, beyond those typical of your average Mexican restaurant. Those that I have tried were wonderful. Their three salsas each have tremendous flavor and texture (not pureed). The staff, while not especially fluent in English, were very attentive. (This is, after all, an authentic Mexican restaurant) I would like to next bring several friends so that we can sample more items from the menu than the 1 or 2 that I typically order.“
“(Translated by Google) Tienda Latina, has a great variety of regional foods from Mexico and Central America. The prices are very competitive and the town is easy to find.(Original)Tienda Latina, tiene gran variedad de comidas regionales de México y Centro América. Los precios son muy competitivos y la localidad fácil de encontrar.“
“The food is great. I've tried the loaded fries with steak. Also loaded nachos, carne asada tacos. I was not disappointed. Though communication is sometimes difficult, staff still nice. No dine in, drive thru or window order only. Not sure on delivery.“
“Grande Burger is worth the price. Do not hesitate. No gristle or bones in these burgers! The first time there were jalapeños which was delicious. Ask for them if you want them. Pick up service is quick. The hard shell tacos are yummy too. One time they were flour and the next time corn so it is lovely to get a variety and have this choice. (Later learned hard shell flour is chalupa not taco. Chalupa shell is a little heavier than a fried flour tortilla.) The Steak Fajita King Burrito is so large it could feed a family! Super tasty and made less messy which is another thing to appreciate. We just started ordering here and plan to make it a regular staple in our rotation. Typically do not get along with restaurant food but *this food* must be built with love!“
“I mostly have frequented the Delmar Loop location, since my work office is nearby, but have also visited the location at The Streets of St. Charles. The food is refreshingly different! Faves are the Chicken Flautas and the Portabella Quesadillas. The tacos are amazing too, love the variety and different than the other places. The chips, salsa, and Queso Con Chorizo are excellent! Love the off the cob street corn too! Have dined in and gotten to go orders as well! Staff is always friendly too!“
“First time at Diego's was pretty good. The queso was delicious as was the mojito. The birria chicken taco was underwhelming. I didn't care for the green sauce and it was kind of bland. The rice and beans were average. The fish taco and the veggie taco were good. Got dessert for my bday. Overall had a great time, the service was prompt and friendly. The place looks great. Will be back.“
“I came here for dinner before a long night out to explore the bars close by. The food portions are enormous! I ordered a bulgogi bowl with extra meat, and it's not your usual Korean food portion. It was massive!It was a hearty dinner. The staff is friendly, and the ambiance is all right for a quick dinner or lunch here.“
“I love this spot we go here for our teriyaki Quesadilla and love their many other Choices on food, Even have a children’s menu. They put their heart into what they make and treat you well. I would recommend here for a lunch date or an evening date or even to go if you like to eat at home!“
“the restaurant had a very cool look to it and i was very colorful, which set it apart from others!! i got a carne asada chimichanga and i really enjoyed it! the rice was something i also really liked. they had really quick service and the people are super friendly.“
“Normally I don't go out to eat but I'm glad I did. The food was delicious and the service was great. I don't really like the decor but that's just me because I'm picky. Overall the female host got us to our tables quickly, the male server was polite and helpful, even though they both looked young.“
“Very over priced for the meal I received. The fajitas came out, not even sizzling lukewarm. Room temp briskets tacos. Didn’t even lettuce or sour cream on the tacos. Waited 45 for a taco salad. Refills were slow. There was only 5 other tables being served. Do not recommend. Salsa was the best thing we had. Loved it.“
“Taco Drip Stl's Dipped Taco on Manchester in Open Concept is more than a drip it is Waves of Flavor?? Thank You God a plant-based Vegan Restaurateurs that cares about plant people. Really appreciated ..totally worth it! #ChefKiss ???? #VeganBirria #JackfruitVegetarian options: Jack fruit and vegan cheese“
“Quaint little restaurant with authentic Mexican cuisine. The staff is nice and attentive and the food is delicious! They have gluten sensitive options as well.Vegetarian options: You can get just about every dish without meat and it will still be delicious.Dietary restrictions: Great place for gluten sensitive customers because you can substitute wheat for cornParking: Ample free parkingKid-friendliness: Plenty of choices on the kid menu.“
“Me and at least 20 of my coworkers love this place. We have Global Quesadilla Day every few months as a way of bonding. Good food and good people.My only request would be for you to open a location in Florissant, MO?Thanks in advance!Dietary restrictions: High blood pressure“
“The tamale is out of this world as is the guacamole. Really, the tamale is the absolute best I have ever had in my life. However the tortilla chips are so thick and do not taste good at all. The Chicken, beef, pork tacos were delicious. The fish tacos -not so much. They tasted like tuna and were a bit stinky. I'll keep going back for the tamales.“
“This place is always happening! Loud music but they still hear me just fine! In the gay district so lively fun group of customers! My daughter eats here every single week and I just started trying their food. She loves the Arroz Con Pollo and I found the Chicken Quesadilla that was delicious! We will be back! We always eat there late night. One of the few places serving savory food late night!“
“since moving down to the area finding good mexican food has been a struggle. the food is either sub-par or the food is pretty good but crazy expensive. this place hits both boxes. The food was very good. The price was just right, about $30 for two adults with no alcohol. the salsa wasn't a standard I'd say american salsa that nasty blan tomato paste they put out at most places. this had tons of flavor as well as tasted very fresh. I will say there hotter salsa which is usually my go to just tasted like Puréd Jalapeño I'd go back to the drawing board for that one. The food on the other had was very good, filling, and as mentioned very well priced. we will be going back during happy hour for some good food and hopefully better margs.“
“While I was waiting for my food, the owner came and sat next to me at the bar, introduced herself, and then sat and talked with me for another 5 minutes, making sure that I was being taken care of and listening to what I was saying. Wonderful place with a good family vibeParking: If I ever own a restaurant, this is the way I would hope I could run it ?“
“The ceviche de pescado was AMAZING! Same for the coconut mojito. Here goes: I see a lot of undeserved low ratings here from- honestly- some pretty spoiled brats who don’t understand that they are not the center of the universe. So I’m setting the record straight. The seating was completely comfortable, service was great, and the food was fresh!As far as the complaints about small portions go, the portions are only small if you’re a total fat @$$ and can’t understand what constitutes a normal amount of food per meal. For all of us who aren’t 500 pounds, it was the perfect size, hands down. The chairs were not uncomfortable at all. By the way, I’m totally not sorry at all. These people deserve WAY more 5 star reviews.It’s hard to find genuinely good Mexican food with real actual fresh ingredients, but Casa Mia sets the bar! It is a gem tucked away in New Town and a local favorite. ❤️Dietary restrictions: There are vegan and vegetarian options as well as fish for pescatarians.“
“Can in with group. Mine was togo. I order 1st. Then 6 other person order there. Instead turning mine in 1st. He didn't. My family got their food 1st. I had to wait 15 to 20 minutes to get my good. And I told him it was to go. I wish these Mexican restaurants have people can understand English more better.“
“We were created and seated immediately upon arriving and we had a group of ten people. The hostess was very attentive, she made sure to get orders correct a d even went out of her way to make my neice vegetarian tacos (which are not on the menu). Shecrefilled drinks, chips, and salsa without being asked. The food was delicious & came out hot! The restaurant and restrooms were clean, which is a huge deal for us! Great family friendly atmosphere! We will be back!“
“Was in the city and needed to find a New Mexican spot. El Tenampa is a quaint restaurant in Overland, MO where you can find great food with reasonable prices. We stopped by on a Sunday after the lunch rush and was able to be seated quickly. Our server greeted us and took our order but not before we got a healthy basket of hot chips and delicious salsa. El Tenampa has all the traditional Mexican dishes you expect to see but also had some dishes we decided to try. I ordered the pork ribs with chili verde and was served with delicious beans, rice and tortillas. We also ordered a spicy creamed chicken also served with delicious beans, rice and tortillas. Restaurant was very steady with customers as well as having Mexican futbol for all to watch. El Tenampa also has a very good assortment of music to enjoy with your meal. El Tenampa provided a great experience and definitely will be back.“
“Food was good, like any other Mexican restaurant. My waitress was horrible, no personality at all. Took the drinks and food, no silverware, we have to stand up and go to her and ask for anything we needed, (we were the only customers) including another drink. However the bartender was very helpful, i think he saw our struggle and decided to help. I wanted to tip him but he was gone by the time we left (Javier) thank you for your help.“
